We don't need boots on the ground until we've blown the shit out if the entire area. We have the fire power to do so.
I don't have any kids in the military so some may say that's this is easy for me to say... But that is what our military is for. The more they wait the more danger we are in. This scum needs to be wiped off the map!

what kind of idiot keeps his old handle in his new one?
thus defeating the purpose of changing it to begin with.
The story is that these guys both went through at least a dozen mock executions (read led outside, camera, speech, etc all until the end, when they were just returned to their cell) so they are either broken or under the belief its another fake one until it's done.
As far as the camera breaking away - decapitating the way they are is not a smooth process and would take awhile (ugh), so it might make them look weak as they had trouble sawing away.
The reason I kept my old one is because I' ve been on here for a very long time and met some great peeps personally at Giant Stadium and on the road .. So I put my name with my old handle .. Put a face with the handle ..
I disagree on a few counts. I don't think they're as monolithic as we are led to believe. Not unlike the Taliban, where they can work through Sunni sheiks they seem to be doing that. So when someone does something spectacularly brutal or makes a good tactical decision I'm not sure it sends a cognizable message about the entity as a whole.
I still don't know that the appearance of this wannabe Caliphate is going to be enough to convince Turkey to disgorge itself of any territory, at least not until ISIS/ISIL has proven it can stand and fight against a disciplined, motivated, well-armed state army such as the Turks or, if it comes down to it, Iran.
Dune, Sure they sub contract the work in some manner or another but they have found a very effective means of giving the appearance of a modern apparatus with centralized control and some competence at governing at the top (considering how many ex govt, no surprise - invasion of bureaucrats???), whether that is or isn't the case. That starts to become a self fulfilling prophecy (no pun intended). When left unchecked, or worse, galvanized by successive victories, mixed with some setbacks, they have been doing this pretty well. They've demonstrated a lot of things they do well.
They have a world class negotiating and marketing plan and they are executing on it. Something about one death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic. The Steve Jobs/Joseph Stalin school of terrorism.

I hadn't considered Turkey taking direct action before an Iraqi or Kurdish force took their turn. And then I'd imagine we'd somehow find our way into this somehow, someway. Was thinking it to be a considerable bribe, more or less. That's something that's going to be turning over in my head. I'm due in Turkey later this year.
It is believed hat ISIS is already organizing here in the US. I fear a terrorist act far greater than 9/11.
Too many people living in their suburban bubble here in the US think we should just pull out of the middle east and do nothing. They think if we just walk away, then the terrorists will stop. They will never stop. They are born and bred to hate us, fight us and kill us. They have no hobbies other than their obsession.
The scary thing is that this ISIS threat comes at a time when our borders are least secure. They can basically walk right in through Mexico and be allowed to stay.

That was about as stupid a post as I've read on this topic. Seriously, do you even read what you've typed before you actually click submit?
Wait aren't you the same dude who was about to attack your fellow flight passenger because he was a foreigner, who got a little agitated because he needed to go piss on your flight? If so, this post makes a lot of sense.
I think a totally new handle would be a solid move - at least your stupid wouldn't have a history.
If you're referring to the post right above yours, it's another poster with his former handle in parenthesis...however, your comment is still valid for that post as well.
made up of those with skin in the game. We can bomb till the cows come home, if moderate Sunni's and S'hites don't put aside their religious difference to fight a bigger threat then we will be in the same sectarian quagmire as when we pulled out of Iraq in 2011. We can not go it alone to destroy ISIS
He gets his "information" from the baseless, scaremongering sources out there that don't have a remote clue what's really going on.
But he will be the difference between your plane crashing or landing safely when that foreigner tries to take a piss...er...I mean hijack your flight. He's the real hero.
From what Intelligence has gathered, it would be 9-11 times 100

To the contrary, many of the "foreign fighters" have been converted to extremism. One of the scary parts of ISIS is just how effective their propaganda has been in social media.
Currently, the threat to the US domestically is from lone wolves or returnees who want to do an uncomplicated act of terrorism. 9-11 took over years of planning and a lot of sophistication. ISIS hasn't been around long enough in large numbers to have something like that anywhere past the beginning stages. But we ignore the future possibilities at our own risk.

yeah, we was going to use his drink stirrer or something to take him out wasn't he?
I'm not aware of the "foreigner wanted to take a piss on a flight" story.
He told a story about how post 9/11, he was ready to jab an Arab in the throat with his drink stirrer because this foreigner was getting agitated (because he had to take a piss) during the takeoff. He even fashioned himself a nice body armor with a couple of Sky Mall magazines. That damn foreigner was just moments away from becoming a fucking human kabob.
when we were previously haranguing Kevin (formerly Tiki4Six) I actually had confused his handle with EricJ (formerly tyleraimee). Luckily ole tyler came aboard and clarified this for me, rightly taking his place in the Parthenon of awful posters on BBI. We regret this error, If I only had an elephant like memory of BBI handles past and present it could've been avoided.
Kevin, you're okay by me, even if that was a dumb post.
I'm a bit confused by the ongoing press releases by
Are they saying that the US will identify and bring to justice those ISIS members and leaders, who had direct role in the killing of the two journalists? Or are they saying that the US will destroy ISIS with all of its might?
It's a bit confusing when they talk about destroying ISIS but also make it sound like we'll be going after a more surgical route targeting specific individuals. Link - ( New Window )

Let me make this perfectly clear - when has this White House made a perfectly clear statement?
But the M.O. for these guys is to bring these terrorists to New York for trial. It is what civilized people do.

He also gave a little nod to another passenger as they were boarding so he understood that if shit went down, they'd take him out.

Completely forgot about that. That's some "Let's Roll" shit there.
Why do you have to bring race into this? WTF, dude?
What did you say? Shit's dangerous.
